Topic: Suggestion for Ivek23 (Read 21668 times)

I'm sorry for putting this on you Ivek23 but I have been dying for seeing a Rotten tomatoes ratings import for PVD. I cannot help to notice that you were able to fix the IMDB script so that it could take the IMDB ratings.... Would you be able to do the same for RT ratings?

I do not care about any other info coming from RT, only their ratings.

OMG YOU DID IT!!! Sorry I did not check the forum for a while I was not expecting you to do it. Thank you soooooo much Ivek23 this will help me a lot choose the right movie to watch.

I wonder which part of the rating you are interested in:first, second or both of the percentages, or anything else

I was interested by the first % which is the tomatometer.

I managed to get the "average rating" in a custom field called "RT rating" in my movie page (please see attached image), but what I was after was having it displayed just like the allmovie and imdb ratings are displayed. Do you know if this is possible?

As far as I understood from the attached image, is used skin pvd_classic_movie. In pvd_classic_movie skin is RT raring custom field visible as is seen in the attached picture.Of course this can be done, in skin can be added skin is RT raring custom field, but beware, therefore, all other custom fields will disappeared.

How this is done, you can see in my skins in the Scripts and Templates or My current skin for Ivek23 you can add more details about the skin in several pictures, as well as a detailed list of custom fields (I think you have 10 custom fields), and I'll do you skin by RT rating, such as you desire, if you can not you know how to edit the skin according to your taste.

If so then I would like to remove al the ratings I had added using the allmovie scripts, is this possible? This way the field would be blank and would get filled by the RT rating, right

Yes, true, but I recommend that you do not do this (or do that), because you lose some information, which will not be possible to reimburse, but it is better to rearrange the skin, as has been mentioned before. Option in the skin, however, is that can be blocked IMDb rating, as shown in the code below:

Are you sure? The rating I am getting is the "average rating", not the "Tomatometer" (in %).

Thank you for your skin, but I do not want to use it because I want all information to be visible in one page (home theatre), and not in tabs.

I don't care about the allmovie/alrovi rating really. And I do not mind loosing it. Also I do not want to loose my other custom fields and I would like to keep the imdb rating. So my question is: How can I remove all Allmovie/alRovi ratings from my database?

A simple way to solve this:the RT script settings only confirm box for an additional rating, then the simply overwrite allmovie / alrovi rating (see image to Tools> Preferences> Plugins).

I am updating hundreds of movies with the RT script, but for some reason, it does not find some of the movies and does not even suggest titles. I attach screenshots for example. I think (i am not sure) in the case of this Lars Von Trier movie, (and probably for many others) it is looking for the original title (Forbrydelsens element), where is should look for the AkA (the element of crime). So maybe the scrip has to be changed so that it also looks for the aka's?

I also wonder if it is struggling with special characters (titles like "Fortapàsc" or "Frontière(s)".

not I have not added Rottentomatoes (1) script , because I tested the search results on about 300 movies.There is a small cosmetic problem, namely to the first five results (one until five hits - depending on how many are on the All Search Results page) these results again repeat with all the other results in Movies Search Results page (see attached images).I personally use this Rottentomatoes (1) script only if the basic Rottentomatoes script, if it does not display the correct search movie titles for your search movie or if it does not display all search movie titles for your search movie, including it is also correct title for your search movie.

2. )Do the first backup database so that you can do restore database to its original state. Add an entry in databaso instead title "Frontière" this title "Frontiere" and RottenTomatoes script you will certainly find a movie title (see attached picture). So obtained url address for this movie, copy to the url field "Frontière" movie, but first do is restore database before copying copied url.

I am really not sure I understand what you mean, so let me know if I understood:

This is a summary of what I think you are telling me: I should basically search the movie on the Rottentomatoes website, then copy the URL and paste it in the URL field, before running the script. This is what you mean, right?

This is actually the workaround I have been already using for movies that are not found by the script. My issue is that it takes a lot of time to do this one movie at a time, and I was hoping that there was a problem in the script that you could fix.

But I think you have not changed the script, am I right? Please let me know and I will carry on using the URL's one by one.

Yes, it is true. It is only in the event Rottentomatoes script or Rottentomatoes (1) script does not find results.

I apologize for the long workflow. It is also a problem in the script, which I can not solve.

Rottentomatoes script was not nothing changed.

Rottentomatoes (1) script has been modified to better search results. The problem with search results it is in writing addresses instance in movies such as "Frontière". The problem I have tried to fix, but try to solve the problem were unfortunately unsuccessful. For that matter, have to do so as already mentioned

Not yet, because PVD does not support this field. The only option is a custom field and Imdb plugin to add the option to download the data in the custom field.Another option would be to IMDB script and data in a custom field. Easy IMDB script is here (Imdb Movie Script for rating ...).

This option has not yet been added to Imdb script. Can I do a little more thorough look at Imdb source code page and see what I can do. Then I can also tell you at what time then it would be also feasible.
